Abstract
The structure of the title compound has been solved from X-ray diffractometer data by the heavy-atom method and refined by least-squares techniques to R 0.060 for 4 409 independent reflections. Crystals are triclinic, space group P, with unit-cell dimensions: a= 11.29(1), b= 12.02(1), c= 13.68(1)Å, α= 102.0(1), β= 113.3(1), γ= 104.0(1)°, and Z= 2. The structure consists of molecules of formula [{SnII(NO3)(AsPh3)(SnIVPh3)}2] in which SnII is five-co-ordinate in a highly irregular way by two adjacent [NO3]– anions and by the two triphenyl-metal groups, where a disordered distribution involving Sn and As is present. The nitrate groups bridge the two SnII atoms in the dimer in a rather unusual way.Keywords
